    schema:description "Belgian judo pioneer, credited with introducing the sport to Belgium. Studied judo formally for the first time in Berlin in January 1941 at the school of Erich Rahn, the first Belgian to do so, continuing until 1943. Founded the first Belgian judo club, the Judo and Jujutsu Academy Bushido-Kwai, at Schelle on 20 May 1946; a Mechelen branch followed on 14 March 1951 and in 1996 the club became the first in Belgium to be granted the Royal predicate. Promoted to shodan in September 1952 and from that year a first-generation, dedicated student of Tokio Hirano. Pioneer of judo instruction to the Belgian police from the early 1950s and of children's and women's judo programmes. His notable students include Carl De Crée and Jeannine Meulemans. The city of Mechelen named its new combat sports hall after him in October 2012, following his death in August of that year."@en ;

    ns2:researchNote "The encyclopedic infobox lists his rank as \"BJB 2nd dan & BKFS 6th dan\" (BJB = Belgian Judo Bond; BKFS = the club's Bushido-Kwai Judo-Karate fighting system). The BJB 2nd dan is strikingly low for the acknowledged pioneer of Belgian judo, reflecting that several of his own pupils obtained black belts before him (the October 1951 AFBJJ and February 1952 BEL.A.J.A. exams from which he was excluded). His shodan was awarded by the Dutchman Ger F. M. 'Opa' Schutte in September 1952, not by Hirano. The nidan promoted by Hirano was recognized administratively by the Belgian Judo Federation through its technical director Ichiro Abe - an organizational recognition, not a teacher relationship. Per the club historiek he also received a karate black belt from Japanese master Y. Araki (7th dan). Trained the Mechelen police corps from September 1954; left the Flemish Judo Federation in 1993; transferred club judo instruction in 2001. Mechelen named its new combat sports hall (Donkerlei) after him on 10 October 2012." ;
